Edgar’s Relentless Pursue for The Love of His Life
Chapter 235
âI.â
Edgar gave the matter a great deal of thought before finally continuing, âIf sheâs still willing to give birth to the baby, Iâll take full responsibility.But I donât want to continue the marriage.Iâve already thought it through â I donât love her.â
From the beginning, he had never once fallen in love with her.He had just fallen for the identity she impersonated using the pendant.
If this farcical show went on, more people would be hurt.It would be better to stop propagating the hurt any further.
Thinking about his explanation, Edbert slowly heaved a sigh.
âAlright.Iâll head over to Reece Residence and explain to them.Meanwhile, you should take a good rest at home.You just returned from abroad, and you have some injuries.Alasâ¦â
With that, he walked out of the room, leaving Edgar standing rooted to the ground.
Before closing the door, he said, âIn life, you only have a few major regrets.Think it through so that you donât hurt anyone any furtherâ
That night, Gigi went to Royden Group, sobbing her heart out.Before Edgar could get off work, she blocked his way.
âI heard from your uncle.You want to break up with me and call off the wedding, donât you?â She wiped her tears away.
âImpossible! I will never agree to that!â
She threw a tantrum in his office, ignoring the impassive expression on his face.
However, when he heard the words âbreak upâ, he thought of another person.
When I sent a lawyer to discuss the divorce with Jean, was she also heartbroken? But she wouldnât throw such a tantrum.She would only get to what she wanted by hook or by crook.
From another perspective, we are pretty similar.
âEdgar, Iâve done nothing to bring you disgrace.If you are mad about me accepting the directorsâ invitations, I promise you that Iâll never go out with them again.Isnât this enough?â
âItâs not because of that.â He frowned.
âWhat is it, then?â
She suddenly stopped sobbing and walked to him in a few swift steps.
âTell me!â
He lifted his head to look at her.
Just as he was about to reply, there was a sudden knock on the door.
âEnter,â he instructed as he turned around.
Jean opened the door with a takeaway box and some medicine in her hands.She froze briefly when she saw Gigi in front of his desk.
Then, she explained, âSusan asked me to drop these here.Also, youâll need to change your bandages; the medicinal lotions are here.Thatâs all, byeâ
âStop right there!â
Gigi lifted her chin angrily and pointed at Jean.
âAre you calling off the wedding because of her?â
Heâs calling it off? Jeanâs frown deepened.I have nothing to do with that, yet sheâs accusing me of it.
âItâs none of her business.â
Edgarâs face darkened, and he pulled Gigi away, but she was making a scene, refusing to oblige and wailing loudly.
Jean wanted to leave the instant she shut the door, but she was stopped by Andy, who was walking toward her.
âMs.Eyer, are you feeling better? I wanted to pay you a visit, but I was too late for that.Luckily, Mr.Royden is caring enough to bring you overseas for treatmentâ
Loud sobs and wails could still be heard from the room, while Andy was obviously scheming for something under his cunning smile.
Jean regretted doing Susan a favor by going upstairs and delivering those things to Edgar.
If it werenât for that, she would not even be bothered.
âYour hearing still hasnât recovered?â Andy asked with his eyes narrowed.
Jean remained silent and pointed at her ears before replying loudly, âIâm sorry! I still canât hear anything!â
The rest of the employees in the cubicles heard that and turned around.
At this moment, Gigi walked out of Edgarâs office and saw both Jean and Andy.
âWhatâs wrong?â Edgar asked, ignoring the wailing Gigi: his priority was always Jean.
After all, there had been enough rumors about them, but he didnât have the time to ask the public relations team to take care of it.
âNothing much.I just ran into Ms.Eyer by coincidence, and I was just greeting her.Itâs not a problem, is it?â
He shrugged and smiled playfully before cocking his head toward Jean and whispering into her ears.
Even though she put on a calm facade and pretended as though she heard nothing, she was deeply shocked by what she had just heard.
Andy observed her reaction with a frown.
After a while, he laughed softly.
âSo you really canât hear anything, huh?â
âEdgar! I forbid you to look at her! The collaboration between you and Eyer Group has already been called off, hasnât it? From now onwards, donât even speak to her! Iâm enough for you, am I not?â
Gigi continued to pester Edgar as she sobbed.
Meanwhile, she also glared at Jean occasionally, as though she wanted to skin her alive.
Many employees came over to witness the drama.
After all, it was not everyday one could see the love triangle of their companyâs president.
âEnough! Miles, send her back! Without my permission, she is forbidden to enter Royden Group!â
Gigi was stunned beyond belief when she heard that.
When she was being escorted away, she even held Andyâs arms instinctively.
However, he gently brushed her hands away and commented, âMr.Royden, since you are busy with something else, Iâll take my leave first.â
Since Gigiâs request for help was ignored, she could only watch the elevator door close tearfully.
âHas Jean gone deaf for real?â she asked Miles.
With the Reece familyâs pride in mind, he replied in a low voice, âIâm not entirely sure.â
âSheâd better be!â
She walked out of Royden Group angrily, but there was no one to help her out.
Now that she was getting bigger because of the pregnancy, the other celebrities avoided her; Linda had not contacted her for a long time, and she didnât even pick up the phone.
If this situation goes on, Iâm really going to become a housewife whoâs disconnected with the outside world.
All of a sudden, someone popped into her mind, and she dialed a number after some consideration.
âHas Winnie been doing what sheâs been told? Tell her to wait for my message if she still wants to return.â
Not long after the car started driving, she saw Andyâs car behind her.He also sent her a message.
âHe ignored me just now, and now heâs asking for forgiveness?â
She wanted to reject him until she saw the second message from him. Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
âJeanâs reputation will be destroyed tonightâ âStop!â
She ordered the driver and got out of the car to enter Andyâs car.
âYou have a plan?â
âIâve already put the bait out.As long as she bites, she wonât be able to get out of it.The rest of her life will be ruined.If you are satisfied with the outcome, what will you bring me?â
Gigi bit her lips before saying viciously, âDonât you want Royden Group? Iâll make sure your son inherits the company.Isnât that enough?â
âIn that caseâ¦bear me more childrenâ
With that, he grabbed her thigh and turned into the basement parking of a nearby hotel.
At the very same moment, Jean was sitting on the couch in Edgarâs office.
Were Andyâs words just now real? He said that thereâs important evidence about Eyer Groupâs bankruptcy stored in the safe in Edgarâs office!
